The projected value of a market segment is an estimate of the potential revenue and profit that can be generated from selling products or services to that segment. To increase confidence in this estimate, it is important to keep the calculations transparent and continually updated as more accurate information becomes available. This involves documenting the assumptions, data sources, methods, and results of the calculations, and validating them with stakeholders and experts. It also involves monitoring the changes in the market conditions, customer behavior, and competitor actions, and adjusting the calculations accordingly. By keeping the calculations transparent and updated, the organization can ensure that the projected value of a market segment reflects the current and future reality, and avoid overestimating or underestimating the market opportunity.
